Your class will be writing one or two paragraph(s) as a class group for the story (not one paragraph per student). The first class will write the intro paragraph(s). Then the next class will read the paragraph(s) and decide how they want to continue the story. This will continue until the last class on the list writes the ending and gives the story a title. Your paragraph(s) will be typed onto this Wiki page. You will add the 3 pictures to the wiki after your class writes your paragraph(s). The pictures should illustrate events in the section that your class wrote.

Mission Man Kind
My name is Joe O’Reilly, currently, I am on a mission to Planet Neptune to save my dad who is stranded there. A few months ago, my dad went to Neptune to do an experiment, but he got captured and we don’t know who has him. We’ve been getting very slight transmissions from him, but haven’t gotten a full message yet- which is why I'm on my way to Neptune. Something must be wrong…. I have to save my dad!
This started a few months ago, when I hopped on my rocket, F7156. The trip started without any hiccups, but one day, there were UFOs surrounding me and they used their tractor beams to take me out of my ship. All of a sudden, I was stuck in their ship! The aliens used special powers to stun me. That’s where I am now. Suddenly, the alien leader, Blobnar appeared before me. Blobnar was 10’ 10”, bright orange, had 10 pink eyes and a brain outside of his head. He was holding an emerald staff with which he sent messages. When he tapped his staff a message appeared in my head. It was the rest of the message from my father! The message was “I need your help, do what Blobnar tells you”.
I was terrified as I looked at Blobnar. What would I need to do? Suddenly Blobnar tapped his staff again. This time the message flickered and was not as strong. I concentrated and was able to hear ” I need a special orb to continue to power my staff. You need to find and bring it to me if you want to see your father again”.
So, the plan had to be for me to work with Blobnar. Through a series of questions, I found out that my dad had created the Blobnar system in an orb in order to make the world better.
My dad was trying to duplicate the same electromagnetic fields involved in the human brain. The nervous system is a network of cells called neurons which transmit information in the form of electrical signals. Blobnar was a tissue of over 100 billion cells which could send telepathic signals from brain to brain. Evidently, a huge explosion catapulted the orb to another planet.
But which one? It was the gases in the Neptune atmosphere which allowed my dad to duplicate the human electrical system, but also the violent nature of Neptune's atmosphere of hydrogen, helium and methane that created the unforeseen explosion.
The explosion transferred my dad into the orb and the Blobnar system out of the orb. Without the source of the human electrical system -- my dad --- Blobnar would lose power and be totally drained.
"Wait, another message is coming from the staff, but it is very weak. It sounds like the orb was drawn from the western side of Neptune to a planet called Saturn -- the second largest planet in our solar system." I knew where I had to go next. I realized I was on a mission not only to help Blobnar, but to save my dad!
Thankfully my father always keeps a spare F7165 rocket in working condition in his garage! I gathered myself and enough materials to put together a trap that would get my dad out of the orb. I didn't forget the large class cube to safely store the orb in. After all, it's very dangerous!
As my rocket shoots and soars into space, I can't help but to think "What if my plan doesn't work and I can't safely return my dad or the orb to Blobnar?" I have to stay positive and focused! As I coast my rocket around Saturn I can see a large bright light. "That's it, that's the orb, and there is dad!" I make sure to hover my ship close enough to where my long metal trap goes inside the orb. I shout to my father "Hurry dad! Jump into the net and I can suck you out of the orb!" My dad jumped with all of his strength.
He made it! I was so happy to see him safe, I gave him a huge hug and we both grinned from ear to ear. Although we were as happy as could be, our mission was only half complete. "Son, we must collect the orb using your trap and securely trap it into this glass cube."
Dad was hanging out of the rocket ship so far onto the edge, he almost slipped! Fortunately, he caught onto to the side before it was too late. The orb was safely trapped into the net. The both of us pulled and pulled until we had gotten the orb into the rocket. Dad knew exactly how to handle the orb. He placed it gently into the glass cube and closed it tight.
Now, it's time to go back to Neptune and return Blobnar's electromagnetic field. As our rocket slowed to reach Neptune's surface, we could see the large alien, Blobnar. He was in sad shape. He was struggling to breathe and he could barely move. We frantically jumped out, unleashed the orb from its glass cube and before we could even process what was happening, there it was, the orb bigger than ever. Amazingly, Blobnar reached his alien feet and walked into the orb.
He was back! Blobnar was back and safe! The orb was no longer too large or explosive. Its journey to Saturn had somehow worked out all of the defects. Blobnar tapped his large emerald staff three times. It said, "How can I ever begin to thank you? You have saved my life and the lives of my people. We will forever be grateful! I promise to always protect the great people of Earth whenever they need help."
Dad and I returned back to Earth safe, and especially happy knowing we just saved mankind forever!
